(14,085 posts)The message is spot on.

(61,141 posts)The AI-using creeps on YoyTube making clickbait videos of Jimmy Kimmel or Rachel Maddow or other celebrities supposedly saying things they wish they'd say are treating those people as puppets. Same is true for whoever made up this fake quote and attributed it to Macron.

(14,085 posts)Then it will be of no use--too late.
We must stop them right now.

(61,141 posts)quotes in real people's mouths, as the OP did. I hope DUers aren't sharing that fake quote on other platforms.

(108,240 posts)There's a bad guy trying to take over the world, and some folks are just letting him.
If Fox, Infowars, TPUSA, CPAC, and so on had been around in World War 2, we'd currently be under Nazi rule.

Not even MAGA.

(38,434 posts)I can't find anything reliable which establishes that Macron actually said this.
It would be nice . . . but better not to spread if it is not true.

(61,141 posts)referred to "a 79-year-old man." It was changed to the "cry baby" wording quite a bit later. But I haven't been able to find a news source for the earlier wording, either. Just a bunch of social media posts about what was apparently an invented quote.
You should realize that IF Macron had actually said that - either version - there would have been a lot of real news stories about it.
There aren't any. Just a lot of social media posts. I checked a number of them, and none referred to a real source.

(61,141 posts)there. Also quite a few Facebook and Threads posts - also Meta. Not nearly as many from X. A few from LinkedIn.
And not one single news source.
Editing to add that I didn't see anything about this on Reddit. Their mods are pretty good about getting rid of fakes very quickly, and they simply delete them.

(9,362 posts)28% of Americans cannot be trusted. Trump will be gone in 2028. Replaced by a D. And things for Europe will get measurably better. But they still cant trust us. Because that 28% is lurking in the wings, waiting .
